On Tuesday, I reported about Greg Morris’ plans to open The Oaks Gourmet Market. After that, the owner of The Spanish Kitchen, Stone Fire Pizza Co. and The Belmont will turn his attention to The Grafton. BOA is moving down the Sunset Strip to Luckman Plaza, and Morris will replace IDG’s steakhouse with the olive on sunset, a casual Italian bistro. Yesterday, he said, “I wanted something that represented the food and drink aspect of the concept, the food is obvious and of course the olive in the martini is pretty obvious as well.”

The space will change dramatically. Morris said, “We are blowing out the whole front of the hotel and making all open outdoor style seating, the feel with be modern Italian Bistro, very bright clean and simple.”

As for ETA, Morris said, “We are taking over shortly and after about 10 weeks of remodel we will be opening.”
